You need a queue that can store twenty slots, i.e. it you want to push in the 21st word, the 1st one falls out of the queue. At the end the queue contains the last 20 words.

I believe what my good friend Jos is saying is that you need some way to store the words.

I have heard people could possibly use arrays (not sure if you have learned that yet).

But Jos is right - you need a way to store the words - then use that storage to output the words it contains.

I hope that helps some. Any moderators here can correct me if I am wrong, since I am a partial newbie as well.
